My talent is smallish.
Therefore my amps should be.

Well got the little amp Christmas morn. Got a chance to play
with it some today after the Lad headed back to Huntsville. It's
pretty fun!
of course getting those low low's out of a 8" speaker is asking
a bit much, but it actually does a pretty good job of moving the
air and definitely can rattle the windows here in the bunker.
The Contour switch scoops out the mids so when I want to play a
bit percussive it really takes out the fret noise.
It has a built in, non adjustable compression circuit in it,
seems fairly intuitive.
The built in overdrive circuit is adjustable and I can see where
I'll make use of that sometimes. With the overdrive all the way
up, you can mix the clean and overdriven signal and got some
pretty cool sounds out of it.
At full saturation it sounds like Jack Bruce's live "Wheels of
Fire" EB-0 through a stack of Marshall's Farting bass tones.
I really like the configuration of the cabinet. It's got a
sloped corner and some little feet on it and I can throw it on
it's side and then the speaker is facing me like a stage
monitor,
For $108 tax and title, not a bad deal at all! ;D
